Hi,
I've been reading the archives and help but can't work out where to start so I hope someone can send me in the right direction.
I've been running fop-0.20.5 for about 6 months in the following format to create PDF files: I run a 4GL program that drops out to the Operating System (Solaris 2.7 / 8) and calls:
/usr/local/fop-0.20.5/fop.sh -q -xsl XSLFile.xsl -xml XMLfile.xml -pdf PDFoutput.pdf >> /tmp/fop.log.
This is taking around 10-15 seconds for each PDF(around 1-2 pages) I create. As has been pointed out in previous posts, this is because the java libraries need to be loaded. Now I have more PDFs to create and I need to speed up the process.
My question: Can I write a fop script that would start in memory with all the libraries and I could call that instead? Has anyone written something similar? Does anyone understand what I want to do?
well i dont think you can do it with a script, but certainly a simple java program can do this for you. As a starting point have a look at:
http://xml.apache.org/fop/embedding.html#render-with-xslt
Please note my java knowledge is zero. I have a little scripting experience. So be easy on me please!
Oh ... get a book on java, its not that difficult really!
